Hi!
This is a joint blog where we channel our endless enthusiasm and energy towards music and entertainment.
All of us are still schooling, and this is just about the only way to keep our sanity. :D
Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, hence disagreements are not uncommon. :) We will blog about what we like, and
about what we find amusing. :D
Music Core and Inkigayo were cancelled this week, I believe it is due to the sinking ship tragedy in Korea. Let's pray for the families and for those still missing at sea.
Nevertheless, I decided to recap Music Bank! Hehe. Right now I have a buffer time of 3 days before school starts full swing again. First round of exams ended on Thursday for me. :)
BEAST - Shock I've been monitoring and watching most of their performances because I'm so addicted to the rap by Junhyung, especially the first verse!!! Plus the choreography that goes with the rap. Hahahaha. I love this song, period. BEAST won their first number 1 yesterday on M!Countdown btw :D :D :D :D x10000000000000000000 I hope they win Mutizen soon hehehehe and Kikwang's new hair is flyyyyyyyyyyy~ I love it. Dongwoon's so intense, his gaze. And the way he walks down during the 2nd verse is kinda awkward but I can't help notice how he's so ~*model-like*~. I think about it in every single performance.
Amerie + 4Minute - Heard 'Em All 4Minute shone!!!! I was especially surprised by Sohyun, she was so confident during her part!! I feel so proud hahahaha they were really good. Amerie was good too, but I felt that she was sitting back during this performance :) Oh, and the 4Minute girls surprised me with the high pitched parts. :D It was good. I also like what Hyuna was wearing, I don't know why but I just liked it hahaha (it's not even what I'd wear normally, but I liked it?? :\)
2AM - I Did Wrong OH AND I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG TOO. I love the abstract feel from the choreography hahahaha and the tightness too, when they "flop" and "rise" stuff. Also, Jokwon's hair is the cool DJ hair that I like!! DNW Changmin's hair though he kept up with the fanservice hahahah Jinwoon looks so cool and although I don't like Seulong's wet hair look...his eyes were intense. HAHA.
After School (Comeback) - Let's Do It This is basically just a drumming performance. HAHAHA but it's still cool. I was fascinated by drumming cos of the movie Drumline and they've really practiced hard!! They've even got some drumming tricks up their sleeves. I just read somewhere that apparently, Gahee was the one who came up with the concept. Or rather, she wanted to do something like that but didn't know what song this concept would fit into, until she heard Bang! :)
After School - Bang! Gahee is so amazing. Her voice doesn't match her outward appearance (she looks kinda fierce to me) but her voice is so beautiful! I think I love the bridge part the best. :) I thought they did great in their comeback performance!! :Db I like the outfits, the blue matches. It's nice hahaha
T-ara - I Go Crazy Because Of You DO NOT LIKE THEIR OUTFITS :( Tbh this is the first time I'm watching them perform this ever since their song came out. x________x I'm that out of the loop. Hahaha anyway they are neon here so they kinda glow in the dark but honestly I thought Kara's Mister in neon looked nicer? This was quite scary. T-ara girls were vocally sound though!! All of them :) And I see them using props!! Hahahaha I like it when groups use props, it's kinda like they put in a lot of effort to make a HUGE wonderful performance for us to watch :D hehe
SNSD - Run Devil Run So far these are my favourite outfits from them hehe and the purple is so nice!! Anyway, when this song came out I was surprised that Seohyun had a "power part" where she sings the high notes?? Yes!!!!! I had no idea her voice was that solid because she usually sings smaller parts. But it's good :) And, I also like the part where the "run, run, run" is really high pitch. I think it's about 2:50 around there, Taeyeon's voice *________* she doesn't get a close-up but you can see her singing her heart out during that part hahah
Supreme Team - Step Up I've never really listened to them properly but Simon D caught my attention heheheh ok well the both of them did because there was this photo of them wearing the "Ss" and "Ee" shirts by AA?? The Helvetica ones, anyway I was stalking the shirt and I saw them wearing it and decided to...listen to them hehehe Anyway Supreme Team (apparently) are friends with BEAST so around the last 20 seconds of the performance you see Simon D (!!!!!!!) dancing to Shock I think hahahahahahahaha Performance was solid btw. The rap is irregular (well, to an amateur like me, it sounds like the beat is irregular) so that makes it all the more harder to perform live but they killed it. :Db
KARA - Lupin I can see now why they're sweeping the charts. This is just about the second time I'm hearing this song, and the first time I'm watching them performing. It's kinda addictive?? I like the little English part at the beginning, and the "catch catch hallo hallo" i found the "catch catch" part quite cool. But why is Hara only singing the same 2/3 words?? It's quite funny haha. But watching this, it's very obvious that Kara has improved vocally by a tremendous amount (compared to Pretty Girl days) and they're now whole performers!! Yay!! :D Watch them win their 3rd consecutive win on Music Bank here!! Nicole's face was a picture when she saw the score haha
I don't know when my next music show post will be, because tomorrow will be back to school in full swing... I'll try to keep up with the updates! Promise! :)
Loads of special stages on tonight! So I'm going to watch the special stages and link the other performances too but I'll only watch some haha /biased
SPECIAL STAGES: 2AM + 2PM - The Place Where You Belong Hehehehehe I liked seeing Seul Ong here hahahaha ok just 2AM in general because they are jumping around on stage and not doing ballads :D Miss Jay, though
2AM - Again & Again COOL. They do it ballad way, and there's harmonization all hahahaha interesting to hear the track like this :Db
2PM - This Song I WAS REALLY WORRIED, cos This Song is a ballad and 2PM is a dance group but I think they did decently well :D Proud hahaha
BEAST vs ZE:A - Dance Battle OMG this was quite awesome hahahaha I loved the ending even the it's the ZE:A boys doing it hahaha but it was still a cool way to end the stage. BEAST was AWESOME. But so were the ZE:A boys. I haven't got round to learning their names yet because school work is piling up I'm just lazy. Plus, there are too many of them. Haha.
C.N.Blue - Rock & Roll Music Sorry, I can't find a video that syncs well :( This is out of sync, but all the other videos I've found are out of sync like that too :(
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep Hahahaha all the Korean culture on stage hahaha. Jiyeon's missing though :( But they look nice in their modern hanboks (right?)
T-ara won #1 for K-Chart today! Whoohoo, the girls are on a roll!! I hope they keep up this winning streak, for a 2nd Mutizen this Sunday go go go~ :D
Also, SHINee's back!! They disappeared for a bit last week (I HOPE they were getting rest after gayo daejun haha) and I was sad cos I thought they'd left and wasn't going to perform Jo Jo anymore. But they're back :D
Also, Hyuna and F.Cuz debuted 8)
F.Cuz - Jiggy Ok tbh, first guy sounded REALLY breathless to me. Plus I remember him as the really high-pitched guy from their MV. Ok the dance involved a lot of jumping - but then halfway through the performance (I was also looking at the subtitles haha KOREAN subtitles) and it occurred to me that actually most of the lyrics is, like, gibberish? Hahahah fav part is actually the backtrack part where it goes "bom bom bom bom" sorry :\ Curly hair guy is pretty good, his voice was stable most of the time imo. I think he was doing the high notes. :) Cos it sounds like him hahaha
Hyuna Feat. Junhyun - Change Honestly, I thought Hyuna was stretching it a little, she didn't have enough stamina :\ but we can't blame her for being breathless in the song because those dance moves are fierce!! Really taxing. And she was singing quite a lot of it. I mean, she wasn't just letting the backtrack play and stuff. So I'm quite impressed overall :D Junhyung rocked his little featured part btw, but the cameraman didn't get a closeup of his eye peeking from behind the shades HAHAHAHA
IU Feat. Key - Love Letter For You (By MC Mong) THIS WAS SO SWEET. Hahahahaha cutest and most awkward thing ever. Idk if there are fangirls out there going crazy and hating on IU but seriously, IU is so talented?!!! Her voice texture is so unique, if only I could sing like that hahahaha *dreaming* Besides I think Key bb did well. So awkward with him giving IU roses at different intervals. And poor girl looked so scared? Idk she looked scared to me. Like she didn't dare look at Key hahahaha. Key, you better sing me that song too!!! :D
SHINee - Jo Jo Wow 8D I think I'll never get sick of this song, really. When I was on holiday, all I kept listening to was SHINee's Y.O.U mini-album hahahaha
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep Hyomin's dorky dance break is back!! Too bad the cameraman didn't catch it >:( I think Jiyeon is busy filming "God Of Study" so she wasn't performing. And Eunjung is such a DORK. She was pushing Hyomin and doing a body wave (?) while they marched off the stage. HAHAHA
Merry Christmas everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With ♥, Jumpingnutz :D
Music Bank's Christmas special was oozing with cuteness and fandoms colliding (but the major fandom colliding program/show of the year will have to be the upcoming SBS Gayo Daejun!!! :D can't wait hehehe)
Gonna try and recap most of the performances!! :D
MBLAQ vs. BEAST - Dance Battle (2009 Dance Diary) Kinda liked this cos it recapped all the hit dance moves of the year!! Hahahaha but I wished the two groups had more interaction. Like, dancing together and stuff? haha! Joon's Heartbeat was so fierce omg, I thought his chest was going to pop out or something?? And BEAST did "Again&Again" which I think must be their all time fav or something hahahaha they're ALWAYS dancing to A&A.
SM Town did a "Idols Golden Age" performance where SNSD, SHINee and f(x) came together (as SM family awwwwwwwwww) to perform :D
f(x) - Chu~ It's a short performance and towards the end SHINee comes on because they're up next with Ring Ding Dong. :D
SHINee - Ring Ding Dong Another short performance, I was sad that the "Butterfly~" parts were cut out, BUT I was glad they kept Jong's intro, the rap, and "Don't be silly girl~" "You're my miracle~" parts :Db Towards the end, f(x) comes out to join them in the last chorus!!! I think Amber's dance was so... alike. HAHAHAHAH.
SNSD, SHINee + f(x) - Gee + Jingle Bell Rock LOL Key and Taemin dancing Gee hahahahaha. Sulli was so cute!! OMG CALLING TAEMIN OPPA. HAHAHAHAHA. Taemin won't ever seem like an "oppa" to me, srsly. And Jingle Bell Rock was kinda cool!! Hehehehe I'm glad Key was standing next to Sunny and Hyoyeon cos Idk they're like my 2 biases in SNSD haha! And Krystal was next to Jessica, d'awwwwwwwww. Minho looked pretty awkward cos he stood right out next to Victoria (Right?) and Luna hehehe but it was a cute SM Town performance altogether :Db
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep HYOMIN AND EUNJUNG ARE SUCH DORKS HAHAHAAHAH Hyomin wore the snowman suit this time!! During her little dance "solo" she was doing some weird thing hahahahahaha it was so funny watching her being retarded ♥!! And then Eunjung at the end was da bestttttt she was the only one marching forwards while the rest of T-ara AND the back-up dancers marched backwards lol!
Epic episode with T-ara's comeback, 2PM winning and well, f(x) too cos they're back as 5 (Amber, Krystal and Sulli had swine)!!!! :D
2PM - Heartbeat WOW THIS PERFORMANCE IS AN ART. NICHKHUN DOES THE ENDING AND THIS TIME HE DOES IT DIFFERENTLY. Omg I was so caught up with the fan chants (trying to hear Park Jaebum and I think they said it like, "PARK JAE BUM, 2PM!" haha :D) and I nearly missed the ending!!! It's epic!! You should watch it. It's different from the usual and omg I just love how they did it hahaha :)
2PM - Winning and Encore Aww that's quite a long encore considering hahah! Junsu and Junho mess around a bit but Wooyoung is moody in the background :(
BEAST - Bad Girl (Remix) I love this group because Doseob always dishes out the fan service :D This time Doseob were like lovers or something. And the remixed version includes Junhyung and Hyunseung showing off their popping/dance skills hahahaha too bad the cameraman missed a close-up of Ki Kwang's ab flash >:(
f(x) - Chu~ Ahhh looks like the trio who were down with swine are fine now :) They sound solid and I really like the part where they go "amber" and Amber comes out with the rap. Hahaha.
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep I was kinda disappointed to see them perform this cos I thought they were gonna perform "Like The Beginning", but apparently they must have thought Bo Peep Bo Peep would be chosen, so they're preparing for Like The Beginning now. That said, I thought it was a cute performance (but a little pitchy at parts, haha) and the way they ended and marched off the stage was the best :Db
Ah, I was supposed to do some work before 9pm hahaha. Oh well.
Even though today is Music Core and not Music Bank, I decided to watch some of yesterday's Music Bank cos 2PM won.
2PM WON YESTERDAY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HAHAHAHAHAHA i'm so happy for them :D They deserve it. :)
SS501 also had their goodbye stage and After School had their comeback!
Ok but I'm running out of time ;~; so I'm just watching 2PM stuff sorry guys!!
2PM - Heartbeat I LOVE THE INTRO STILL HAHAHAH. I haven't been watching all the Heartbeat performances so I've only ever seen Wooyoung do the ending (and I was thinking, man, does he have to keep doing that cos it looks like it hurts) but apparently there's only Khun left and the rest of the boys have done their turn? Hahaha idk. But Junsu was frickin cool. Smooth and fierce, love it. Taec's eyes were extremely scary when he did the hand-holding-heart thing at the beginning. Chansung was, intense man!
2PM - Winning #1 So they cut out the encore stage >:( But I spy Dongwoon!! And Wooyoung's smile :)
2PM - Encore fancam MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!! :D LOL!! The white guy (from U-Kiss right?) pretending to play the violin LOL LOL and Taec the beast throwing the flowers to the crowd. TAEC LETS WHITE GUY (sorry I don't know U-Kiss well ;~;) DO HIS PART. AND OMG CHANSUNG. He lies on the ground like...a model, staring at white guy. HAHAH! Chansung instigates Junho to push Taec to the ground like he does to white guy but white guy resists and Chansung pushes hard HAHAHA. Wooyoung why so serious ;~; I worry about him cos he hasn't been smiling!!!!! And when Taec and Chansung try to play around he pushes them away. I have a feeling that Junsu did a fail throw with the flowers so Chansung kicks him lol. CHANSUNG SO CUTE AT THE END!! Wooyoung, well, I think that's him at the side while the rest of them are "Dead" on the ground.
Dear Wooyoung, please cheer up!! Jay's going to be back soon so smile alright? :)
Allkpop also reported that their parents (Nichkhun's, Taecyeon's and Junsu's) came down to support them! ♥ I think the boys need all the support they can get especially with the boy cott :\
Down to the performance proper, Taec's start was great!! I really liked Chansung's part following that of Taec's, but the cameraman didn't get a great angle so :( it didn't turn out that epic hahah.
Still, the ponytails dnw for me. I don't like it haha. They are going for a ~*dark*~ and ~mysterious~ concept, but tbh Junsu's look reminds me off his Joker image in Wild Bunny hahaha! I still love them though.
I'm amazed at the formation/cheerleading thingy hahaha. I keep imagining the top of the pyramid as a spot reserved for Jaebum, for when he returns :') But it's amazing because they're really fast with the formation, and no mistakes!!
Great comeback on Music Bank, I hope they'll pick up some awards soon :)
I won't be able to cover the other comeback stages till Monday ;~; I have a camp that starts tomorrow, be back on Monday!! I'm kinda sad that I'll have to miss their comeback stages ;~; I wanted to watch Inkigayo live on Sunday haha
SHINee (Feat. Yesung) - Ring Ding Dong This performance had Yesung fill in Jonghyun's spot since the boy is down with swine flu. Yesung's voice is really unique and husky, but it... it isn't Jonghyun's. Hahaha. Yesung only sang the intro then he went off stage and returned towards the end of the performance - which means the other 4 of them did Jong's parts!!!! :D TAEMIN, BABY HAS IMPROVED SO MUCH I FEEL LIKE CRYING ;~; HE IS SO GOOD RIGHT NOW. Jong has trained him well. Taem is so much more confident too, he sings with such self-assurance I'm so proud!! I think this has partly got to do with the fact that his voice has stablized a lot too :)
Key also sang one of Jong's parts. I think they shortened the song because it was quite an abrupt move to Minho + Key's rap.
Jong, I miss you but get well soon! SHINee isn't the same without any one member ;~; NEEDS JONG TO DO THE MOUTH WIPING THING AND SET THE FANS CRAZY. 8D
SHINee still managed a second consecutive K-Chart win without Jonghyun (but with Yesung! ♥) AND THIS ENCORE VID IS A MUST WATCH. The boys keep shouting out "Jonghyun hyung~!" AND they proclaim their love for Jong. And Yesung probably felt out of place so he was heading off stage but Onew ♥x100000000212 saw Yesung going off and ran after him to make him stay!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG ONEW I LOVE YOU :D
Good leader Onew is good. ♥
f(x) also had their comeback performance with Chu~♡ tonight!
f(x) - Chu~♡ Victoria seems to have a non-existent back! DID YOU SEE THAT THING SHE DID NEAR THE END. OH MY GOD. I used to do ahemchinesedanceahem and we had to do stuff like that - but it didn't help hahaha now I stand crooked and am as stiff as an ironing board -_________-
I'm impressed with the performance and wowowowowowowowowow f(x) seem to go for songs with a softer beat - not so harsh and stuff and I like it :) I also like Victoria's mic pass with Luna and Amber - quick and fast :D
AND they aren't wearing the hideous outfits (especially Sulli!) from the MV. But I think those outfits might make an appearance soon.
Okay I've only watched two performances so far and I've got to sleep already :O haha tired :x
HOMG SHINEE WON FOR TODAY'S MUSIC BANK AND I'M GETTING GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER... I FEEL SO PROUD HAHAHAHAHAHA
Stellar performances from many many groups tonight!! I'll recap only some of the groups that I'm watching right now cos I need to pee but I want to finish typing this out hahahaha :D
{Video credits to WeAreShiningOnTivi @ Youtube}
Hehehehehehe I'm still happy for them hahaha ~♥ They did really good here though I do not like Taemin's hair. Key's "butterfly" actions get weirder each time hahaha! I'm kinda sad they cut out Jonghyun's intro to the song and jumped straight to the Ring Ding Dong parts? I love the intro!
Still, gratz to them on their win!!!!! Jong DID NOT CRY :O (haha joking I love this boy) and Minho talked!! He thanked the crowd :D Taemin and Key were also linking arms while Taemin held the bouquet ;D And Key ^^ singing while flaunting the trophy HAHAHA Onew sounds sick? His voice was so...soft :S I wished encores were longer :( (jealous overseas fan)
4Minute - What A Girl Wants Gayoon fell off the stage yesterday and her ankle swell but she's still dancing in heels!! WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE. Wow. They've really become professionals. I used to doubt Sohyun's vocals cos they weren't particularly strong in Muzik, but I think it was the dance maybe :) She sounds fine here and it's nice seeing them having fun on stage with the fun choreography? Hahaha
BEAST - Bad Girl ♥ Camerman didn't catch Yoseob smacking Doojoon's butt :( But the fans did HAHA! And Dongwoon's hair looks so much better here, though AJ's looked better in the MV (to me, at least hahaha) i like how they were 3 black, 3 white today ~♥
F.T. Triple - Love Letter Awwww I think Jaejin has a really nice voice, even if it isn't raspy (and very unique, hahaha I'm not familiar with F.T. Island songs but I could figure out Hongki's voice on Korean radio HAH! :P) but it sounds really soothing. ♥ YAY.
MBLAQ - Oh Yeah Red + Black this time! :D (I'm wearing red now hahahaha) G.O.'s voice is so *_________* and Cheondong is like such an awkward boy it's cute :) I think he's still reserved on stage, you see the rest trying to up the hot-ness of the performance and he's just being shy and awkward ♥
SS501 - Love Like This Tbh, I didn't finish watching this but HOMG I LOVE THE INTRO THING they did with the screens/silhouettes!! So cool! And their outfits are a lot better than the fake tattoos stuff last Sunday haha. I hope they win something. Btw, I think Leader's hair looks better with the fringe down - he looks older like that :(
T-ara & Supernova - Time To Love They did TTL!! The original version and wow it's so much slower than TTL Listen 2 hahaha I think I'm used to the fast track now :) I think the song is really beautiful slow. It's nice, and Hyomin with the guys (yeah, Jihyuk and... :\ Haven't got the Supernova names down argh) is just WOAH hahaha.
Bbl with the rest of the performances!! I've to pee for reals hahaha and it's dinner time :) Updated already! :D
16.10.09 : [091016] SHINee's comeback on Music Bank!
Posted by XYZ at 7:48 PM
{Video credits to dkpnews @ Youtube}
:D :D :D :D :D The choreography looks good, it's really tight and they are one with the dancers - LOVELY. Jonghyun is working up his sexy meter hahahahaha and while I'll have to take some time getting used to Key's hair, he's doing good! Taemin's hair actually looks like a crimped mushroom head? :\ But I hear his vocals, and it's getting better!! :D :D But also, he's in a cape?? OKAY WHATEVER. TAEMIN HAS IMPROVED AND IS SO MUCH MORE CONFIDENT NOW :D doesn't matter what he's wearing LOL
MINHO HAS A TINY PONYTAIL AT THE BACK OF HIS HEAD.
Haven't done any recaps in a while, so I thought I'd do one on today's Music Bank episode.
2NE1 won the crowd over, and this is their fourth win on Music Bank with "I Don't Care"!
Check out their performance video here. "I Don't Care" is really becoming a hit over here, my class is crazy over this song...
AND LOL OMG HAHA it's the speed skater on Triple as the MC! LOL, he played his role really well, it made the drama cuter :) See also some more 2NE1 goodness of them in the waiting room.
Brown Eyed Girls - Abracadabra Wow, I really really enjoy this song it's kinda addictive in it's own way!! Btw, I like Ga-In's hair a lot, it's like short and simple but it's kinda fashionable in a way? :\ I just like it a lot haha!
4Minute - Hot Issue (Feat. the new MCs!) LOL! It's the remix version anyway the Triple guy (is his name Joong Ki? :\) looks really out of place and awkward, but he did a great job! The female MC (idk her name either :\) was really good! She's pretty good at dancing and she put up a great show, like she felt comfortable on stage :)
F.T. Island - I Hope Why does Jonghoon's hair look blonder than ever here!!!?? I thought it was a pretty good performance too, but when they didn't move together during the first chorus the atmosphere seemed tired/down a little? Then they brought it up and well, awesome. Btw, Jonghoon doesn't actually play his solo live right? :( HOMG you must watch it being performed LIVE here on KJE's Chocolate Part 1.
KARA - Wanna I think this concept is much better than their cute concepts from before. :) They look more mature here!
SHINee - Juliette Tbh, Juliette isn't one of my favourite SHINee songs :\ But I'm sad that their Juliette performances are coming to an end (last stage on August 9th!). Also, during the course of their promotions for Juliette I've noticed how their style/concept has changed and become more streetwear and realistic :D :D :D I LOVE THEIR OUTFITS HERE. Except for, maybe, Taemin's pants. Because it makes him look less skinny but at the same time, the extra cloth hanging around his butt there looks weird haha! Love Onew's blue jacket though! And Key's jacket too :)
Omgggggggg, I love 2NE1 to freaking bits and pieces man. Pretty Boy was so hot, and I Don't Care was marvelous manzzzz :D
CL looks so hot with her hair down and the blondish highlights on her fringe, and Dara looks so cute without her hair standing up, lolllll. They're all so pretty in the performance, and we're finally getting to hear CL sing more instead of rapping continuosly. Plus Minzi's voice is kinda nice :D
Charisma!
Plus Park Bom has lost some of her shyness, and I can distinctly hear her sing now! Omg, awesome or what manzzzz! :D Too bad they're only performing once a week ): Cause YG wants them to have quantity and not quality.
Ahya, who cares? Their once a week performance makes people want them more, and I've no doubt they're gonna hit number one on the charts.
Updated: One of the light fixtures on the stage @ Music Bank came loose and fell on Onew, but luckily Siwon and Kyuhyun prevented it from hitting him. Onew is fine, but hospitalized because he fainted from shock and had signs of psychological distress. POOR BB, PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!
Dropping links off because I've to go back to studying!! Finally watched them. :) Uh, I did selective watching though, haha they are some stuff I haven't watched yet - and I don't think I'll get round to it till next week when exams are over.
KPOP Parade (Kara, SHINee, Girls Generation, 2PM) Oh, they're tributing to the idol groups before - Kara for Fin.Kl, SHINee for H.O.T, SNSD for S.E.S, 2PM for G.O.D. Awwww it's that cute child actor (I forgot his name!) and he goes and gives Jessica, Tiffany and Seo Hyun flowers! He's got the best expressions for a child!! And Taecyeon's greasy voice in their performance hahahahaha
2NE1 - Umbrella FREAKING COOL, IT'S LIKE A YG MIX - THEY SWITCHED UP THE LYRICS OF THE ORIGINAL!!! :D They sound nervous haha, and not strong like how they did for other songs at radio stations lol. Omg they put in water, but I think they shouldn't have because it's really messy. And it looks like a bucket is pouring off Minzy's umbrella and splashing onto Bom. Hahaha.
2NE1 - Fire OMG CL OPENS THE SONG DIFFERENTLY!!!!! :D :D Ah, so she was paying tribute to MJ. He'll be remembered, fo' sure! Dara almost trips on Minzy as she's walking backwards, thank goodness neither fell. And since they're in heels, they do the Indian inspired move differently haha :) GOOD. They might trip in heels!
SNSD - Tell Me Your Wish (Genie) OMG THE FANCHANTS ARE SO DAMN LOUD!! And they also won on their comeback, They are the K-chart winner for the first half of the year, here. I'm watching this and the dance is so leggy because they have nice legs :(
BOYS GENERATION - Gee THEY PUT KEY IN!!!!! OMG I'M WATCHING THIS NAO DESPITE THE FACT I HAVE TO STUDY 8D They put Eunhyuk in so there's only 1 SHINee member and it's Key!!! ♥ JAY DANCES WRONGLY HAHA omg it's a Boys Generation mix and Eunhyuk raps in it I've missed him rapping so much!!!!! :D :D :D :D And then Seo Hyun, Yuri, Soo Young and Yoona jump in from the other side of the stage - how exciting!! And the rest of SNSD too, they start walking in from another side!! Oh, so they close the song awwww my Boys Generation is gone lol :D
SHINee - Juliette Onew falls at 0:29, looks like he slipped because of the wet stage from 2NE1's Umbrella stage. THEY SHOULDN'T USE WATER, SEE!! I love Key so much, he always catches the camera - like he did in Gee, he did it here! ♥
Super Junior - It's You + Sorry Sorry I like the stuff that's going on on the background screen!! It's got polaroids of them flashing around and it's nice :) Shindong and Siwon's hair wtf -________- Sungmin didn't perform cause he injured his leg but he still took part in the Boys' Generation performance which is why I love him so much Hahaha. And he didn't perform in Sorry Sorry, but he sang from a platform :) AWWWW SUNGMIN!! No wonder all the fans were looking in the other direction at 1:37 - cause Sungmin was there. Aw he is so awesome + cute at the same time, he dances by himself over there!! :D And Leeteuk smiled at his part!! :D :D :D Eunhyuk still does his awesome bow at the dance break, and they spread out to surround the stage towards the end. "We are Super Juni-or~!" :D They'll be at the Golden Melody Awards today (Saturday)! I think you can watch it on cable from Singapore :)
Okay, I've put up almost every single performance lol but I haven't got the time to watch them!! Damn exams, because of exams I can't go and see F.T. Island. :( I NEED TO GO AND STUDY AGAIN I'M BEHIND TIME!!!!1 D:
SHINee won #1 on Music Bank!! Omg I'm so happy because while they have a huge fan base and are really talented especially at such a young age, I worry about their #1s because it's not...consistent? Hahaha. 4Minute's second performance (debut on Music Bank) but if I'm not wrong 2NE1 weren't there.
2PM - I Hate You Red and black! Jay with a Rolling Stones tee :D And it's got studs on the tongue wow hahahaha. They sound a bit tired. :\
4Minute - Hot Issue HyunA's high pitched singing is still bugging me hahaha her rap sounds high too! Btw, is the short haired girl Ji Hyun??! Her voice is pretty strong but sometimes I think she runs out of breathe, I don't know. I thought this performance was slightly better than the one they did yesterday on Mnet though. :)
SHINee - Juliette Omg they're wearing okay clothes again!! :D Colourful, but okay. Except for Onew and Minho. Minho's like, not wearing summer clothes hahaha especially with that coat. And Onew's blazer looking thing looks weird haha! And I like Jong's shirt even though it's so colourful!! Taemin's wearing this thing round his waist like a belt, but it makes his shirt ride up so he has to pull it down when dancing (see 0:41 :D) and Key is totally catching the camera again!! This time Jonghyun catches the camera at times too :) Oh and Onew's wearing the Rubik's cube necklace thing that Taemin wore before :D AND AND AND THEY ARE WEARING THE SHOES!! The cool ones with gradated colours :D
AND IS IT ME OR DID TAEMIN TOTALLY IMPROVED ON HIS SINGING!!!!??? :D He sounds much better now! Even better compared to the other Juliette performances. I can hear his voice and it sounds almost stronger too? :)
Watch them win number 1 here against V.O.S and Super Junior (Super Junior weren't present) and Minho enfolds them all in a huge hug :) Okay the video hasn't turned HD yet so it's all blur and stuff I can't see if Jong's crying or anything haha ;D
THE FANS ARE SO LOUD WHEN THEY SAY "JULIETTE". :O
AND WHAT DID ONEW SAY WHEN HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SING!!!!! D: I want to know so badly hahahaha I hope someone subs the encore video haha! :D
Okay okay I need to study again after I watch the last part of my Family Outing episode! I am totally addicted.
2NE1 - Fire Their first performance on Music Bank (they've only been performing on Inkigayo - lol I read on allkpop where they described 2NE1 as being released from their Inkigayo cell HAHA) Stellar performance, CL is mad fierce (as usual) and Minzy does a split on stage omg :O
And they're in the Space version MV kind of clothes, so it's high heels and they still do the dance at Dara's part with such ease!! You know, the one where they have to balance on one leg. In heels. Oh my goodness.
2PM - Again & Again + I Hate You Khun and Taec in *shiny* pants. HAHAHA. Is the newest fashion style all about dangling stuff? Cause there's dangly chin masks and they are wearing stuff with fringes on it?
Huge improvement from M!Countdown! I personally think Khun has a nice voice. Hahaha. Or maybe it's just me and my bias, that I like his voice texture.
They also won with a rather long encore for Again & Again, dethroning last week's winners, SHINee. Great job! I think they deserve it, especially after winning on Inkigayo and M!Countdown.
SHINee - Juliette I'm sorry but I can't bear to watch this performance :'( They are wearing the outfits from Inkigayo - where Key looks like he's wearing a halter top and I can't distinguish if it's a female or male outfit (Cheeeken told me that it's a female outfit) ;______; But they look mighty fine in just casual clothes - give Minho and Key Jonghyun's wife beater!!! HAHAHAHA
2PM - I Hate You I'm glad Khun's pants aren't Khaki in colour anymore, now it fits more with the rest of them in terms of outfits. :D And all of them are sweaty!! I think they must have performed/rehearsed many times before they chose the cut. I'm not sure how these recordings for music shows work, but I'm going to find out. Hahahahah :D
Overall, I thought it was a good performance although Junho should really lose the chin mask :( but all of them are vocally sound. Taec's rap is so...greasy? And I don't get the sunglasses - maybe he's supposed to electrify everyone with his eyes after taking them off (Omg I'm not thinking straight!!!!)
SHINee - Juliette Loads of closeups of their shoes!! :D Hahaha, they are wearing the outfits from last week's Music Bank stage (? if I'm not wrong) and thank goodness Key has changed his outfits haha. No more hat, and nicer clothes (ie the jeans look like from "Talk To You" outfits HAHA! but much better)
Jong's voice is... O.O wow. Also, Key keeps finding the camera in this performance - it's so amazing the way he does it. Like, the cameraman is filming him and Taemin but he's the only one who's looking at the camera because Taemin isn't aware. Same as the ending - he finds the camera and stares straight at it.
Super Junior - It's You Shindong and Eunhyuk have some sort of dance battle? For a bit? But my video was kinda lagging so I couldn't see much x( anyway, they should do more of this kind of things!! Haha
RYEOWOOK IS IN FRAMES OMG SO CUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE B) <-- did that look like frames to you? HAHAHAHAHA. Anyway he's so slkdjfsldkjfao adorable and during the chest popping part, Donghae and Shindong helps Eunhyuk to "take his jacket off" so that he shows off his shoulders haha. Eunhyuk used to do it himself. And towards the end Heechul fan services again - his face is probably centimeters away from Hankyung!!! :O
Alright. I have to do some studying now with my stuffy nose (it's actually affecting my eyesight - so I apologize if I see things wrongly in the videos even though it's in HD hahaha)
Inkigayo later - you can expect me to be back for sure!! :D
My SHINee post was too messy. I'll write up my essay tomorrow, I guess. I'm willing to wait for HD videos that are in sync. :D
{Video credits to pwincesz02 @ Youtube}
I like the light colour of their outfits, but the quality isn't the best here so I'll edit the link later.
Meanwhile!! EUNHYUK DROPS HIS MIC IN THIS PERFORMANCE!!!! Hahahahaha I'm so proud of myself for spotting it. ;D
At 1:40 you can hear some disturbance in the music when Kangin is singing. This is because Eunhyuk dropped his mic. He was holding it all the while until the chest movement thing, I think that's when he put his mic into his back pocket and it drops at 1:40. He bends to pick it up but stops because it's too obvious and he needs to like, move. HAHA. Then he stares at it while Hankyung picks it up for him, I guess it was in front of him. :) :)
I can't really tell but is Kangin's hair still grey?? :S
Alright I'll update as we go along because this is all too exciting!!! :D
{Video credits to xliSh02 @ Youtube}
I JUST WATCHED THIS LIKE 5 TIMES IN A ROW JUST TO SEE ALL OF THEIR EXPRESSIONS. :D One time for each of them.
Okay, and another time, the 6th, for Kangin! Hahahaha he's in the background in white if I'm not wrong.
They totally killed me when Jonghyun did the count and all of them did the S move thingy from the dance in Juliette. AND KEY BLOWS A KISS. Of course it's aimed at me ;D HAHAHAHAHA *gets bricked badly*
I'll edit again when videos of their performances are out! They are performing Juliette and Talk To You.
Which, omg, reminds me that I've yet to listen to the songs on their mini-album. Oh, I FAIL SO BADLY. x(
{Video credits to prot0908 @ Youtube}
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG BTW I DIDN'T REALIZE IN THE LQ VERSION OF THE WAITING ROOM THAT KEY'S HAIR IS LIKE, BLONDE! OMG BB! WHAT THE HELL????? Thank goodness you still look quite okay but I like your dark hair please bb, colour back asap I love you! xD
OMG I JUST READ THAT SHINEE WON #1 ON MUSIC BANK TODAY HOMG I NEED HD VIDEOS NAOOOOOOOOOOOO
I'm not going to talk spazz about the performances until I get HD!! :D
THIS IS FRICKIN AWESOME, #1!!!!!!
{Video credits to pr13ansj @ Youtube}
LOL Heechul stares at Onew when he's talking about their comeback stage (I'm guessing).
Key is standing next to a girl from the girl group (I have no idea what group though OMG!) and I'm jealous :(
OHEMGEE KEY'S FACE IS A PICTURE WHEN THEY FIND OUT THEY'VE WON OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Jong is crying on Kangin's shoulder!! and omg he's is crying so badly it's okay!! I'm strangely reminded of their first win on M!Countdown for LLO cos he's crying the same way too... like in the I-can't-breathe-anymore way.
TAEMIN'S HAIR IS DAMN THICK MAN! Lol Eunhyuk is so cute, he blows confetti @ Se Yun's face HAHA and towards the end of it the backup dancers are throwing confetti around ahahahah so cute (L)
SHINee has just recently released their new mini-album 'ROMEO' on the 25th with the new concept of 'Romeo & Juliet' in mind. The title song 'Juliette' also contains a special meaning: SHINee is Romeo and their fans are Juliet. Therefore, this new album is a gift from Romeo to his most beloved Juliet.
The album's songs are mapped out as a story that is similar to 'Romeo & Juliet'. SHINee explains, "If you look at the tracklist, you will realize that the whole album actually tells a story. Starting from the first song, the content of each song resembles 'Romeo and Juliet'.
From the boy and girl's first meeting (Talk to You), the boy confesses that he will 'give up his soul for her' (Juliette). But the couple suddenly has a fight with each other (Hit Me Baby). The girl leaves and the boy becomes depressed because of his newfound loneliness (Senorita). The boy tries his hardest to beg the girl not to leave (Please, Don't Go), but their story ends as tragically as Romeo & Juliet's (Romeo + Juliette).
After Jonghyun watched Olivia Hussey's 'Romeo & Juliet', he wrote the lyrics to the title song, "Juliette". He says, "I wanted a love story that was recognizable to everyone, and at the time, I had just finished watching 'Romeo & Juliet'. So in my lyrics, I tried to incorporate the beautiful language that was in the movie."
Ever since debut, SHINee has captured the hearts of noonas everywhere. Onew says, "On Rose Day, we went around to many places to give out roses in order to promote our new album. At the time, I was really happy that so many women screamed for us in the streets."
In just a year, SHINee has had many hit songs and won numerous awards. By dressing in really colorful clothing and singing different genres of songs, SHINee's image is deeply embedded in the audience's minds.
On their first year anniversary, Onew said, "We are not newcomers anymore. Now is the time for SHINee to create their own image and place in the industry. After debut, we have experienced many new things. Even though our voices, dances, and fashion sense has improved, we are still not satisfied."
The members currently live in an apartment with 4 bedrooms. But everyone still sleeps together in one room with bunk beds. They originally decided to sleep in the same room in order to build up their team unity, but now the members say that if they do not sleep together in the same room, then it feels really strange.
Key also insisted, "Although our personalities and habits are different, everyone is able to learn a lot from everyone else. Instead of saying that we are good friends, we should be a called a family instead. We are a family."
I fail so bad, I haven't got time to listen to their new mini-album yet, and I have a mid year paper on Monday T.T
Hope you enjoyed reading that interview, though :)
I thought it was really interesting how each song progressively tells a story of the whole Romeo & Juliette album :D and really cute when Key insisted that they were a family ha ha
I was going to post up Music Bank performances but they're not up on Youtube yet...
And while Youtube-ing I came across this video:
{Video credits to ssuhuii @ Youtube}
Not the best quality, but it's been almost a year (just one day short! ha ha) since this performance...where Key's mic pass to Taemin after Taemin's dance solo failed. Lol.
22.5.09 : [090522] Super Junior wins #1 on Music Bank!!
Posted by XYZ at 7:58 PM
Super Junior won their first #1 for "It's You" on Music Bank today!! :D And it's only their 2nd performance, and 1st one for Music Bank omgomgomg I'm so proud of them.
{Video credits to Sup3rJunior @ Youtube}
Will edit with a video of their performance later! Watch their performance video here with a HD link. :)
I'm so proud of them because "It's You" is a really beautiful song! In my opinion. I know some people don't think so (ie my friend's brother and I don't actually know him HAHA) but to me, the lyrics are really touching. Okay, maybe only because it applies to my life right now. HAHA.
I AM NEVER GOING TO GET ANY OF MY WORK DONE TONIGHT, AT THIS RATE. :S
But whatever, because there is an obvious reason to celebrate!!!!!! :D
P/S: The ring thing that Eunhyuk's wearing @ 1:42 looks like the one that Junsu from 2PM wears in their Again & Again performances!! :D I love it when different artists wear the same stuff, actually. :D
8.5.09 : Super Junior "It's You" MV teaser + [090508] #1 on Music Bank again!
Posted by XYZ at 9:58 PM
HELLO THERE KIBUM!! Why is your face so white! Hahaha. I really hope you'll cut your hair soon though :D
I thought SJ ended Sorry Sorry promotions last week but they haven't! :D Hahahaha they will end this week though and start promoting "It's You" from the 17th. I have 3 major tests on the 18th x.x (I have a feeling I'll be using this "x.x" a lot more nowadays! :D)
Music Core and Inkigayo were cancelled this week, I believe it is due to the sinking ship tragedy in Korea. Let's pray for the families and for those still missing at sea.
Nevertheless, I decided to recap Music Bank! Hehe. Right now I have a buffer time of 3 days before school starts full swing again. First round of exams ended on Thursday for me. :)
BEAST - Shock I've been monitoring and watching most of their performances because I'm so addicted to the rap by Junhyung, especially the first verse!!! Plus the choreography that goes with the rap. Hahahaha. I love this song, period. BEAST won their first number 1 yesterday on M!Countdown btw :D :D :D :D x10000000000000000000 I hope they win Mutizen soon hehehehe and Kikwang's new hair is flyyyyyyyyyyy~ I love it. Dongwoon's so intense, his gaze. And the way he walks down during the 2nd verse is kinda awkward but I can't help notice how he's so ~*model-like*~. I think about it in every single performance.
Amerie + 4Minute - Heard 'Em All 4Minute shone!!!! I was especially surprised by Sohyun, she was so confident during her part!! I feel so proud hahahaha they were really good. Amerie was good too, but I felt that she was sitting back during this performance :) Oh, and the 4Minute girls surprised me with the high pitched parts. :D It was good. I also like what Hyuna was wearing, I don't know why but I just liked it hahaha (it's not even what I'd wear normally, but I liked it?? :\)
2AM - I Did Wrong OH AND I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG TOO. I love the abstract feel from the choreography hahahaha and the tightness too, when they "flop" and "rise" stuff. Also, Jokwon's hair is the cool DJ hair that I like!! DNW Changmin's hair though he kept up with the fanservice hahahah Jinwoon looks so cool and although I don't like Seulong's wet hair look...his eyes were intense. HAHA.
After School (Comeback) - Let's Do It This is basically just a drumming performance. HAHAHA but it's still cool. I was fascinated by drumming cos of the movie Drumline and they've really practiced hard!! They've even got some drumming tricks up their sleeves. I just read somewhere that apparently, Gahee was the one who came up with the concept. Or rather, she wanted to do something like that but didn't know what song this concept would fit into, until she heard Bang! :)
After School - Bang! Gahee is so amazing. Her voice doesn't match her outward appearance (she looks kinda fierce to me) but her voice is so beautiful! I think I love the bridge part the best. :) I thought they did great in their comeback performance!! :Db I like the outfits, the blue matches. It's nice hahaha
T-ara - I Go Crazy Because Of You DO NOT LIKE THEIR OUTFITS :( Tbh this is the first time I'm watching them perform this ever since their song came out. x________x I'm that out of the loop. Hahaha anyway they are neon here so they kinda glow in the dark but honestly I thought Kara's Mister in neon looked nicer? This was quite scary. T-ara girls were vocally sound though!! All of them :) And I see them using props!! Hahahaha I like it when groups use props, it's kinda like they put in a lot of effort to make a HUGE wonderful performance for us to watch :D hehe
SNSD - Run Devil Run So far these are my favourite outfits from them hehe and the purple is so nice!! Anyway, when this song came out I was surprised that Seohyun had a "power part" where she sings the high notes?? Yes!!!!! I had no idea her voice was that solid because she usually sings smaller parts. But it's good :) And, I also like the part where the "run, run, run" is really high pitch. I think it's about 2:50 around there, Taeyeon's voice *________* she doesn't get a close-up but you can see her singing her heart out during that part hahah
Supreme Team - Step Up I've never really listened to them properly but Simon D caught my attention heheheh ok well the both of them did because there was this photo of them wearing the "Ss" and "Ee" shirts by AA?? The Helvetica ones, anyway I was stalking the shirt and I saw them wearing it and decided to...listen to them hehehe Anyway Supreme Team (apparently) are friends with BEAST so around the last 20 seconds of the performance you see Simon D (!!!!!!!) dancing to Shock I think hahahahahahahaha Performance was solid btw. The rap is irregular (well, to an amateur like me, it sounds like the beat is irregular) so that makes it all the more harder to perform live but they killed it. :Db
KARA - Lupin I can see now why they're sweeping the charts. This is just about the second time I'm hearing this song, and the first time I'm watching them performing. It's kinda addictive?? I like the little English part at the beginning, and the "catch catch hallo hallo" i found the "catch catch" part quite cool. But why is Hara only singing the same 2/3 words?? It's quite funny haha. But watching this, it's very obvious that Kara has improved vocally by a tremendous amount (compared to Pretty Girl days) and they're now whole performers!! Yay!! :D Watch them win their 3rd consecutive win on Music Bank here!! Nicole's face was a picture when she saw the score haha
I don't know when my next music show post will be, because tomorrow will be back to school in full swing... I'll try to keep up with the updates! Promise! :)
Loads of special stages on tonight! So I'm going to watch the special stages and link the other performances too but I'll only watch some haha /biased
SPECIAL STAGES: 2AM + 2PM - The Place Where You Belong Hehehehehe I liked seeing Seul Ong here hahahaha ok just 2AM in general because they are jumping around on stage and not doing ballads :D Miss Jay, though
2AM - Again & Again COOL. They do it ballad way, and there's harmonization all hahahaha interesting to hear the track like this :Db
2PM - This Song I WAS REALLY WORRIED, cos This Song is a ballad and 2PM is a dance group but I think they did decently well :D Proud hahaha
BEAST vs ZE:A - Dance Battle OMG this was quite awesome hahahaha I loved the ending even the it's the ZE:A boys doing it hahaha but it was still a cool way to end the stage. BEAST was AWESOME. But so were the ZE:A boys. I haven't got round to learning their names yet because school work is piling up I'm just lazy. Plus, there are too many of them. Haha.
C.N.Blue - Rock & Roll Music Sorry, I can't find a video that syncs well :( This is out of sync, but all the other videos I've found are out of sync like that too :(
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep Hahahaha all the Korean culture on stage hahaha. Jiyeon's missing though :( But they look nice in their modern hanboks (right?)
T-ara won #1 for K-Chart today! Whoohoo, the girls are on a roll!! I hope they keep up this winning streak, for a 2nd Mutizen this Sunday go go go~ :D
Also, SHINee's back!! They disappeared for a bit last week (I HOPE they were getting rest after gayo daejun haha) and I was sad cos I thought they'd left and wasn't going to perform Jo Jo anymore. But they're back :D
Also, Hyuna and F.Cuz debuted 8)
F.Cuz - Jiggy Ok tbh, first guy sounded REALLY breathless to me. Plus I remember him as the really high-pitched guy from their MV. Ok the dance involved a lot of jumping - but then halfway through the performance (I was also looking at the subtitles haha KOREAN subtitles) and it occurred to me that actually most of the lyrics is, like, gibberish? Hahahah fav part is actually the backtrack part where it goes "bom bom bom bom" sorry :\ Curly hair guy is pretty good, his voice was stable most of the time imo. I think he was doing the high notes. :) Cos it sounds like him hahaha
Hyuna Feat. Junhyun - Change Honestly, I thought Hyuna was stretching it a little, she didn't have enough stamina :\ but we can't blame her for being breathless in the song because those dance moves are fierce!! Really taxing. And she was singing quite a lot of it. I mean, she wasn't just letting the backtrack play and stuff. So I'm quite impressed overall :D Junhyung rocked his little featured part btw, but the cameraman didn't get a closeup of his eye peeking from behind the shades HAHAHAHA
IU Feat. Key - Love Letter For You (By MC Mong) THIS WAS SO SWEET. Hahahahaha cutest and most awkward thing ever. Idk if there are fangirls out there going crazy and hating on IU but seriously, IU is so talented?!!! Her voice texture is so unique, if only I could sing like that hahahaha *dreaming* Besides I think Key bb did well. So awkward with him giving IU roses at different intervals. And poor girl looked so scared? Idk she looked scared to me. Like she didn't dare look at Key hahahaha. Key, you better sing me that song too!!! :D
SHINee - Jo Jo Wow 8D I think I'll never get sick of this song, really. When I was on holiday, all I kept listening to was SHINee's Y.O.U mini-album hahahaha
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep Hyomin's dorky dance break is back!! Too bad the cameraman didn't catch it >:( I think Jiyeon is busy filming "God Of Study" so she wasn't performing. And Eunjung is such a DORK. She was pushing Hyomin and doing a body wave (?) while they marched off the stage. HAHAHA
Merry Christmas everybody!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With ♥, Jumpingnutz :D
Music Bank's Christmas special was oozing with cuteness and fandoms colliding (but the major fandom colliding program/show of the year will have to be the upcoming SBS Gayo Daejun!!! :D can't wait hehehe)
Gonna try and recap most of the performances!! :D
MBLAQ vs. BEAST - Dance Battle (2009 Dance Diary) Kinda liked this cos it recapped all the hit dance moves of the year!! Hahahaha but I wished the two groups had more interaction. Like, dancing together and stuff? haha! Joon's Heartbeat was so fierce omg, I thought his chest was going to pop out or something?? And BEAST did "Again&Again" which I think must be their all time fav or something hahahaha they're ALWAYS dancing to A&A.
SM Town did a "Idols Golden Age" performance where SNSD, SHINee and f(x) came together (as SM family awwwwwwwwww) to perform :D
f(x) - Chu~ It's a short performance and towards the end SHINee comes on because they're up next with Ring Ding Dong. :D
SHINee - Ring Ding Dong Another short performance, I was sad that the "Butterfly~" parts were cut out, BUT I was glad they kept Jong's intro, the rap, and "Don't be silly girl~" "You're my miracle~" parts :Db Towards the end, f(x) comes out to join them in the last chorus!!! I think Amber's dance was so... alike. HAHAHAHAH.
SNSD, SHINee + f(x) - Gee + Jingle Bell Rock LOL Key and Taemin dancing Gee hahahahaha. Sulli was so cute!! OMG CALLING TAEMIN OPPA. HAHAHAHAHA. Taemin won't ever seem like an "oppa" to me, srsly. And Jingle Bell Rock was kinda cool!! Hehehehe I'm glad Key was standing next to Sunny and Hyoyeon cos Idk they're like my 2 biases in SNSD haha! And Krystal was next to Jessica, d'awwwwwwwww. Minho looked pretty awkward cos he stood right out next to Victoria (Right?) and Luna hehehe but it was a cute SM Town performance altogether :Db
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep HYOMIN AND EUNJUNG ARE SUCH DORKS HAHAHAAHAH Hyomin wore the snowman suit this time!! During her little dance "solo" she was doing some weird thing hahahahahaha it was so funny watching her being retarded ♥!! And then Eunjung at the end was da bestttttt she was the only one marching forwards while the rest of T-ara AND the back-up dancers marched backwards lol!
Epic episode with T-ara's comeback, 2PM winning and well, f(x) too cos they're back as 5 (Amber, Krystal and Sulli had swine)!!!! :D
2PM - Heartbeat WOW THIS PERFORMANCE IS AN ART. NICHKHUN DOES THE ENDING AND THIS TIME HE DOES IT DIFFERENTLY. Omg I was so caught up with the fan chants (trying to hear Park Jaebum and I think they said it like, "PARK JAE BUM, 2PM!" haha :D) and I nearly missed the ending!!! It's epic!! You should watch it. It's different from the usual and omg I just love how they did it hahaha :)
2PM - Winning and Encore Aww that's quite a long encore considering hahah! Junsu and Junho mess around a bit but Wooyoung is moody in the background :(
BEAST - Bad Girl (Remix) I love this group because Doseob always dishes out the fan service :D This time Doseob were like lovers or something. And the remixed version includes Junhyung and Hyunseung showing off their popping/dance skills hahahaha too bad the cameraman missed a close-up of Ki Kwang's ab flash >:(
f(x) - Chu~ Ahhh looks like the trio who were down with swine are fine now :) They sound solid and I really like the part where they go "amber" and Amber comes out with the rap. Hahaha.
T-ara - Bo Peep Bo Peep I was kinda disappointed to see them perform this cos I thought they were gonna perform "Like The Beginning", but apparently they must have thought Bo Peep Bo Peep would be chosen, so they're preparing for Like The Beginning now. That said, I thought it was a cute performance (but a little pitchy at parts, haha) and the way they ended and marched off the stage was the best :Db
Ah, I was supposed to do some work before 9pm hahaha. Oh well.
Even though today is Music Core and not Music Bank, I decided to watch some of yesterday's Music Bank cos 2PM won.
2PM WON YESTERDAY ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ HAHAHAHAHAHA i'm so happy for them :D They deserve it. :)
SS501 also had their goodbye stage and After School had their comeback!
Ok but I'm running out of time ;~; so I'm just watching 2PM stuff sorry guys!!
2PM - Heartbeat I LOVE THE INTRO STILL HAHAHAH. I haven't been watching all the Heartbeat performances so I've only ever seen Wooyoung do the ending (and I was thinking, man, does he have to keep doing that cos it looks like it hurts) but apparently there's only Khun left and the rest of the boys have done their turn? Hahaha idk. But Junsu was frickin cool. Smooth and fierce, love it. Taec's eyes were extremely scary when he did the hand-holding-heart thing at the beginning. Chansung was, intense man!
2PM - Winning #1 So they cut out the encore stage >:( But I spy Dongwoon!! And Wooyoung's smile :)
2PM - Encore fancam MUST WATCH!!!!!!!!!!!! :D LOL!! The white guy (from U-Kiss right?) pretending to play the violin LOL LOL and Taec the beast throwing the flowers to the crowd. TAEC LETS WHITE GUY (sorry I don't know U-Kiss well ;~;) DO HIS PART. AND OMG CHANSUNG. He lies on the ground like...a model, staring at white guy. HAHAH! Chansung instigates Junho to push Taec to the ground like he does to white guy but white guy resists and Chansung pushes hard HAHAHA. Wooyoung why so serious ;~; I worry about him cos he hasn't been smiling!!!!! And when Taec and Chansung try to play around he pushes them away. I have a feeling that Junsu did a fail throw with the flowers so Chansung kicks him lol. CHANSUNG SO CUTE AT THE END!! Wooyoung, well, I think that's him at the side while the rest of them are "Dead" on the ground.
Dear Wooyoung, please cheer up!! Jay's going to be back soon so smile alright? :)
Allkpop also reported that their parents (Nichkhun's, Taecyeon's and Junsu's) came down to support them! ♥ I think the boys need all the support they can get especially with the boy cott :\
Down to the performance proper, Taec's start was great!! I really liked Chansung's part following that of Taec's, but the cameraman didn't get a great angle so :( it didn't turn out that epic hahah.
Still, the ponytails dnw for me. I don't like it haha. They are going for a ~*dark*~ and ~mysterious~ concept, but tbh Junsu's look reminds me off his Joker image in Wild Bunny hahaha! I still love them though.
I'm amazed at the formation/cheerleading thingy hahaha. I keep imagining the top of the pyramid as a spot reserved for Jaebum, for when he returns :') But it's amazing because they're really fast with the formation, and no mistakes!!
Great comeback on Music Bank, I hope they'll pick up some awards soon :)
I won't be able to cover the other comeback stages till Monday ;~; I have a camp that starts tomorrow, be back on Monday!! I'm kinda sad that I'll have to miss their comeback stages ;~; I wanted to watch Inkigayo live on Sunday haha
SHINee (Feat. Yesung) - Ring Ding Dong This performance had Yesung fill in Jonghyun's spot since the boy is down with swine flu. Yesung's voice is really unique and husky, but it... it isn't Jonghyun's. Hahaha. Yesung only sang the intro then he went off stage and returned towards the end of the performance - which means the other 4 of them did Jong's parts!!!! :D TAEMIN, BABY HAS IMPROVED SO MUCH I FEEL LIKE CRYING ;~; HE IS SO GOOD RIGHT NOW. Jong has trained him well. Taem is so much more confident too, he sings with such self-assurance I'm so proud!! I think this has partly got to do with the fact that his voice has stablized a lot too :)
Key also sang one of Jong's parts. I think they shortened the song because it was quite an abrupt move to Minho + Key's rap.
Jong, I miss you but get well soon! SHINee isn't the same without any one member ;~; NEEDS JONG TO DO THE MOUTH WIPING THING AND SET THE FANS CRAZY. 8D
SHINee still managed a second consecutive K-Chart win without Jonghyun (but with Yesung! ♥) AND THIS ENCORE VID IS A MUST WATCH. The boys keep shouting out "Jonghyun hyung~!" AND they proclaim their love for Jong. And Yesung probably felt out of place so he was heading off stage but Onew ♥x100000000212 saw Yesung going off and ran after him to make him stay!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG ONEW I LOVE YOU :D
Good leader Onew is good. ♥
f(x) also had their comeback performance with Chu~♡ tonight!
f(x) - Chu~♡ Victoria seems to have a non-existent back! DID YOU SEE THAT THING SHE DID NEAR THE END. OH MY GOD. I used to do ahemchinesedanceahem and we had to do stuff like that - but it didn't help hahaha now I stand crooked and am as stiff as an ironing board -_________-
I'm impressed with the performance and wowowowowowowowowow f(x) seem to go for songs with a softer beat - not so harsh and stuff and I like it :) I also like Victoria's mic pass with Luna and Amber - quick and fast :D
AND they aren't wearing the hideous outfits (especially Sulli!) from the MV. But I think those outfits might make an appearance soon.
Okay I've only watched two performances so far and I've got to sleep already :O haha tired :x
HOMG SHINEE WON FOR TODAY'S MUSIC BANK AND I'M GETTING GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER... I FEEL SO PROUD HAHAHAHAHAHA
Stellar performances from many many groups tonight!! I'll recap only some of the groups that I'm watching right now cos I need to pee but I want to finish typing this out hahahaha :D
{Video credits to WeAreShiningOnTivi @ Youtube}
Hehehehehehe I'm still happy for them hahaha ~♥ They did really good here though I do not like Taemin's hair. Key's "butterfly" actions get weirder each time hahaha! I'm kinda sad they cut out Jonghyun's intro to the song and jumped straight to the Ring Ding Dong parts? I love the intro!
Still, gratz to them on their win!!!!! Jong DID NOT CRY :O (haha joking I love this boy) and Minho talked!! He thanked the crowd :D Taemin and Key were also linking arms while Taemin held the bouquet ;D And Key ^^ singing while flaunting the trophy HAHAHA Onew sounds sick? His voice was so...soft :S I wished encores were longer :( (jealous overseas fan)
4Minute - What A Girl Wants Gayoon fell off the stage yesterday and her ankle swell but she's still dancing in heels!! WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE. Wow. They've really become professionals. I used to doubt Sohyun's vocals cos they weren't particularly strong in Muzik, but I think it was the dance maybe :) She sounds fine here and it's nice seeing them having fun on stage with the fun choreography? Hahaha
BEAST - Bad Girl ♥ Camerman didn't catch Yoseob smacking Doojoon's butt :( But the fans did HAHA! And Dongwoon's hair looks so much better here, though AJ's looked better in the MV (to me, at least hahaha) i like how they were 3 black, 3 white today ~♥
F.T. Triple - Love Letter Awwww I think Jaejin has a really nice voice, even if it isn't raspy (and very unique, hahaha I'm not familiar with F.T. Island songs but I could figure out Hongki's voice on Korean radio HAH! :P) but it sounds really soothing. ♥ YAY.
MBLAQ - Oh Yeah Red + Black this time! :D (I'm wearing red now hahahaha) G.O.'s voice is so *_________* and Cheondong is like such an awkward boy it's cute :) I think he's still reserved on stage, you see the rest trying to up the hot-ness of the performance and he's just being shy and awkward ♥
SS501 - Love Like This Tbh, I didn't finish watching this but HOMG I LOVE THE INTRO THING they did with the screens/silhouettes!! So cool! And their outfits are a lot better than the fake tattoos stuff last Sunday haha. I hope they win something. Btw, I think Leader's hair looks better with the fringe down - he looks older like that :(
T-ara & Supernova - Time To Love They did TTL!! The original version and wow it's so much slower than TTL Listen 2 hahaha I think I'm used to the fast track now :) I think the song is really beautiful slow. It's nice, and Hyomin with the guys (yeah, Jihyuk and... :\ Haven't got the Supernova names down argh) is just WOAH hahaha.
Bbl with the rest of the performances!! I've to pee for reals hahaha and it's dinner time :) Updated already! :D
16.10.09 : [091016] SHINee's comeback on Music Bank!
Posted by XYZ at 7:48 PM
{Video credits to dkpnews @ Youtube}
:D :D :D :D :D The choreography looks good, it's really tight and they are one with the dancers - LOVELY. Jonghyun is working up his sexy meter hahahahaha and while I'll have to take some time getting used to Key's hair, he's doing good! Taemin's hair actually looks like a crimped mushroom head? :\ But I hear his vocals, and it's getting better!! :D :D But also, he's in a cape?? OKAY WHATEVER. TAEMIN HAS IMPROVED AND IS SO MUCH MORE CONFIDENT NOW :D doesn't matter what he's wearing LOL
MINHO HAS A TINY PONYTAIL AT THE BACK OF HIS HEAD.
Haven't done any recaps in a while, so I thought I'd do one on today's Music Bank episode.
2NE1 won the crowd over, and this is their fourth win on Music Bank with "I Don't Care"!
Check out their performance video here. "I Don't Care" is really becoming a hit over here, my class is crazy over this song...
AND LOL OMG HAHA it's the speed skater on Triple as the MC! LOL, he played his role really well, it made the drama cuter :) See also some more 2NE1 goodness of them in the waiting room.
Brown Eyed Girls - Abracadabra Wow, I really really enjoy this song it's kinda addictive in it's own way!! Btw, I like Ga-In's hair a lot, it's like short and simple but it's kinda fashionable in a way? :\ I just like it a lot haha!
4Minute - Hot Issue (Feat. the new MCs!) LOL! It's the remix version anyway the Triple guy (is his name Joong Ki? :\) looks really out of place and awkward, but he did a great job! The female MC (idk her name either :\) was really good! She's pretty good at dancing and she put up a great show, like she felt comfortable on stage :)
F.T. Island - I Hope Why does Jonghoon's hair look blonder than ever here!!!?? I thought it was a pretty good performance too, but when they didn't move together during the first chorus the atmosphere seemed tired/down a little? Then they brought it up and well, awesome. Btw, Jonghoon doesn't actually play his solo live right? :( HOMG you must watch it being performed LIVE here on KJE's Chocolate Part 1.
KARA - Wanna I think this concept is much better than their cute concepts from before. :) They look more mature here!
SHINee - Juliette Tbh, Juliette isn't one of my favourite SHINee songs :\ But I'm sad that their Juliette performances are coming to an end (last stage on August 9th!). Also, during the course of their promotions for Juliette I've noticed how their style/concept has changed and become more streetwear and realistic :D :D :D I LOVE THEIR OUTFITS HERE. Except for, maybe, Taemin's pants. Because it makes him look less skinny but at the same time, the extra cloth hanging around his butt there looks weird haha! Love Onew's blue jacket though! And Key's jacket too :)
Omgggggggg, I love 2NE1 to freaking bits and pieces man. Pretty Boy was so hot, and I Don't Care was marvelous manzzzz :D
CL looks so hot with her hair down and the blondish highlights on her fringe, and Dara looks so cute without her hair standing up, lolllll. They're all so pretty in the performance, and we're finally getting to hear CL sing more instead of rapping continuosly. Plus Minzi's voice is kinda nice :D
Charisma!
Plus Park Bom has lost some of her shyness, and I can distinctly hear her sing now! Omg, awesome or what manzzzz! :D Too bad they're only performing once a week ): Cause YG wants them to have quantity and not quality.
Ahya, who cares? Their once a week performance makes people want them more, and I've no doubt they're gonna hit number one on the charts.
Updated: One of the light fixtures on the stage @ Music Bank came loose and fell on Onew, but luckily Siwon and Kyuhyun prevented it from hitting him. Onew is fine, but hospitalized because he fainted from shock and had signs of psychological distress. POOR BB, PLEASE TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!
Dropping links off because I've to go back to studying!! Finally watched them. :) Uh, I did selective watching though, haha they are some stuff I haven't watched yet - and I don't think I'll get round to it till next week when exams are over.
KPOP Parade (Kara, SHINee, Girls Generation, 2PM) Oh, they're tributing to the idol groups before - Kara for Fin.Kl, SHINee for H.O.T, SNSD for S.E.S, 2PM for G.O.D. Awwww it's that cute child actor (I forgot his name!) and he goes and gives Jessica, Tiffany and Seo Hyun flowers! He's got the best expressions for a child!! And Taecyeon's greasy voice in their performance hahahahaha
2NE1 - Umbrella FREAKING COOL, IT'S LIKE A YG MIX - THEY SWITCHED UP THE LYRICS OF THE ORIGINAL!!! :D They sound nervous haha, and not strong like how they did for other songs at radio stations lol. Omg they put in water, but I think they shouldn't have because it's really messy. And it looks like a bucket is pouring off Minzy's umbrella and splashing onto Bom. Hahaha.
2NE1 - Fire OMG CL OPENS THE SONG DIFFERENTLY!!!!! :D :D Ah, so she was paying tribute to MJ. He'll be remembered, fo' sure! Dara almost trips on Minzy as she's walking backwards, thank goodness neither fell. And since they're in heels, they do the Indian inspired move differently haha :) GOOD. They might trip in heels!
SNSD - Tell Me Your Wish (Genie) OMG THE FANCHANTS ARE SO DAMN LOUD!! And they also won on their comeback, They are the K-chart winner for the first half of the year, here. I'm watching this and the dance is so leggy because they have nice legs :(
BOYS GENERATION - Gee THEY PUT KEY IN!!!!! OMG I'M WATCHING THIS NAO DESPITE THE FACT I HAVE TO STUDY 8D They put Eunhyuk in so there's only 1 SHINee member and it's Key!!! ♥ JAY DANCES WRONGLY HAHA omg it's a Boys Generation mix and Eunhyuk raps in it I've missed him rapping so much!!!!! :D :D :D :D And then Seo Hyun, Yuri, Soo Young and Yoona jump in from the other side of the stage - how exciting!! And the rest of SNSD too, they start walking in from another side!! Oh, so they close the song awwww my Boys Generation is gone lol :D
SHINee - Juliette Onew falls at 0:29, looks like he slipped because of the wet stage from 2NE1's Umbrella stage. THEY SHOULDN'T USE WATER, SEE!! I love Key so much, he always catches the camera - like he did in Gee, he did it here! ♥
Super Junior - It's You + Sorry Sorry I like the stuff that's going on on the background screen!! It's got polaroids of them flashing around and it's nice :) Shindong and Siwon's hair wtf -________- Sungmin didn't perform cause he injured his leg but he still took part in the Boys' Generation performance which is why I love him so much Hahaha. And he didn't perform in Sorry Sorry, but he sang from a platform :) AWWWW SUNGMIN!! No wonder all the fans were looking in the other direction at 1:37 - cause Sungmin was there. Aw he is so awesome + cute at the same time, he dances by himself over there!! :D And Leeteuk smiled at his part!! :D :D :D Eunhyuk still does his awesome bow at the dance break, and they spread out to surround the stage towards the end. "We are Super Juni-or~!" :D They'll be at the Golden Melody Awards today (Saturday)! I think you can watch it on cable from Singapore :)
Okay, I've put up almost every single performance lol but I haven't got the time to watch them!! Damn exams, because of exams I can't go and see F.T. Island. :( I NEED TO GO AND STUDY AGAIN I'M BEHIND TIME!!!!1 D:
SHINee won #1 on Music Bank!! Omg I'm so happy because while they have a huge fan base and are really talented especially at such a young age, I worry about their #1s because it's not...consistent? Hahaha. 4Minute's second performance (debut on Music Bank) but if I'm not wrong 2NE1 weren't there.
2PM - I Hate You Red and black! Jay with a Rolling Stones tee :D And it's got studs on the tongue wow hahahaha. They sound a bit tired. :\
4Minute - Hot Issue HyunA's high pitched singing is still bugging me hahaha her rap sounds high too! Btw, is the short haired girl Ji Hyun??! Her voice is pretty strong but sometimes I think she runs out of breathe, I don't know. I thought this performance was slightly better than the one they did yesterday on Mnet though. :)
SHINee - Juliette Omg they're wearing okay clothes again!! :D Colourful, but okay. Except for Onew and Minho. Minho's like, not wearing summer clothes hahaha especially with that coat. And Onew's blazer looking thing looks weird haha! And I like Jong's shirt even though it's so colourful!! Taemin's wearing this thing round his waist like a belt, but it makes his shirt ride up so he has to pull it down when dancing (see 0:41 :D) and Key is totally catching the camera again!! This time Jonghyun catches the camera at times too :) Oh and Onew's wearing the Rubik's cube necklace thing that Taemin wore before :D AND AND AND THEY ARE WEARING THE SHOES!! The cool ones with gradated colours :D
AND IS IT ME OR DID TAEMIN TOTALLY IMPROVED ON HIS SINGING!!!!??? :D He sounds much better now! Even better compared to the other Juliette performances. I can hear his voice and it sounds almost stronger too? :)
Watch them win number 1 here against V.O.S and Super Junior (Super Junior weren't present) and Minho enfolds them all in a huge hug :) Okay the video hasn't turned HD yet so it's all blur and stuff I can't see if Jong's crying or anything haha ;D
THE FANS ARE SO LOUD WHEN THEY SAY "JULIETTE". :O
AND WHAT DID ONEW SAY WHEN HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SING!!!!! D: I want to know so badly hahahaha I hope someone subs the encore video haha! :D
Okay okay I need to study again after I watch the last part of my Family Outing episode! I am totally addicted.
2NE1 - Fire Their first performance on Music Bank (they've only been performing on Inkigayo - lol I read on allkpop where they described 2NE1 as being released from their Inkigayo cell HAHA) Stellar performance, CL is mad fierce (as usual) and Minzy does a split on stage omg :O
And they're in the Space version MV kind of clothes, so it's high heels and they still do the dance at Dara's part with such ease!! You know, the one where they have to balance on one leg. In heels. Oh my goodness.
2PM - Again & Again + I Hate You Khun and Taec in *shiny* pants. HAHAHA. Is the newest fashion style all about dangling stuff? Cause there's dangly chin masks and they are wearing stuff with fringes on it?
Huge improvement from M!Countdown! I personally think Khun has a nice voice. Hahaha. Or maybe it's just me and my bias, that I like his voice texture.
They also won with a rather long encore for Again & Again, dethroning last week's winners, SHINee. Great job! I think they deserve it, especially after winning on Inkigayo and M!Countdown.
SHINee - Juliette I'm sorry but I can't bear to watch this performance :'( They are wearing the outfits from Inkigayo - where Key looks like he's wearing a halter top and I can't distinguish if it's a female or male outfit (Cheeeken told me that it's a female outfit) ;______; But they look mighty fine in just casual clothes - give Minho and Key Jonghyun's wife beater!!! HAHAHAHA
2PM - I Hate You I'm glad Khun's pants aren't Khaki in colour anymore, now it fits more with the rest of them in terms of outfits. :D And all of them are sweaty!! I think they must have performed/rehearsed many times before they chose the cut. I'm not sure how these recordings for music shows work, but I'm going to find out. Hahahahah :D
Overall, I thought it was a good performance although Junho should really lose the chin mask :( but all of them are vocally sound. Taec's rap is so...greasy? And I don't get the sunglasses - maybe he's supposed to electrify everyone with his eyes after taking them off (Omg I'm not thinking straight!!!!)
SHINee - Juliette Loads of closeups of their shoes!! :D Hahaha, they are wearing the outfits from last week's Music Bank stage (? if I'm not wrong) and thank goodness Key has changed his outfits haha. No more hat, and nicer clothes (ie the jeans look like from "Talk To You" outfits HAHA! but much better)
Jong's voice is... O.O wow. Also, Key keeps finding the camera in this performance - it's so amazing the way he does it. Like, the cameraman is filming him and Taemin but he's the only one who's looking at the camera because Taemin isn't aware. Same as the ending - he finds the camera and stares straight at it.
Super Junior - It's You Shindong and Eunhyuk have some sort of dance battle? For a bit? But my video was kinda lagging so I couldn't see much x( anyway, they should do more of this kind of things!! Haha
RYEOWOOK IS IN FRAMES OMG SO CUTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE B) <-- did that look like frames to you? HAHAHAHAHA. Anyway he's so slkdjfsldkjfao adorable and during the chest popping part, Donghae and Shindong helps Eunhyuk to "take his jacket off" so that he shows off his shoulders haha. Eunhyuk used to do it himself. And towards the end Heechul fan services again - his face is probably centimeters away from Hankyung!!! :O
Alright. I have to do some studying now with my stuffy nose (it's actually affecting my eyesight - so I apologize if I see things wrongly in the videos even though it's in HD hahaha)
Inkigayo later - you can expect me to be back for sure!! :D
My SHINee post was too messy. I'll write up my essay tomorrow, I guess. I'm willing to wait for HD videos that are in sync. :D
{Video credits to pwincesz02 @ Youtube}
I like the light colour of their outfits, but the quality isn't the best here so I'll edit the link later.
Meanwhile!! EUNHYUK DROPS HIS MIC IN THIS PERFORMANCE!!!! Hahahahaha I'm so proud of myself for spotting it. ;D
At 1:40 you can hear some disturbance in the music when Kangin is singing. This is because Eunhyuk dropped his mic. He was holding it all the while until the chest movement thing, I think that's when he put his mic into his back pocket and it drops at 1:40. He bends to pick it up but stops because it's too obvious and he needs to like, move. HAHA. Then he stares at it while Hankyung picks it up for him, I guess it was in front of him. :) :)
I can't really tell but is Kangin's hair still grey?? :S
Alright I'll update as we go along because this is all too exciting!!! :D
{Video credits to xliSh02 @ Youtube}
I JUST WATCHED THIS LIKE 5 TIMES IN A ROW JUST TO SEE ALL OF THEIR EXPRESSIONS. :D One time for each of them.
Okay, and another time, the 6th, for Kangin! Hahahaha he's in the background in white if I'm not wrong.
They totally killed me when Jonghyun did the count and all of them did the S move thingy from the dance in Juliette. AND KEY BLOWS A KISS. Of course it's aimed at me ;D HAHAHAHAHA *gets bricked badly*
I'll edit again when videos of their performances are out! They are performing Juliette and Talk To You.
Which, omg, reminds me that I've yet to listen to the songs on their mini-album. Oh, I FAIL SO BADLY. x(
{Video credits to prot0908 @ Youtube}
OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG BTW I DIDN'T REALIZE IN THE LQ VERSION OF THE WAITING ROOM THAT KEY'S HAIR IS LIKE, BLONDE! OMG BB! WHAT THE HELL????? Thank goodness you still look quite okay but I like your dark hair please bb, colour back asap I love you! xD
OMG I JUST READ THAT SHINEE WON #1 ON MUSIC BANK TODAY HOMG I NEED HD VIDEOS NAOOOOOOOOOOOO
I'm not going to talk spazz about the performances until I get HD!! :D
THIS IS FRICKIN AWESOME, #1!!!!!!
{Video credits to pr13ansj @ Youtube}
LOL Heechul stares at Onew when he's talking about their comeback stage (I'm guessing).
Key is standing next to a girl from the girl group (I have no idea what group though OMG!) and I'm jealous :(
OHEMGEE KEY'S FACE IS A PICTURE WHEN THEY FIND OUT THEY'VE WON OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Jong is crying on Kangin's shoulder!! and omg he's is crying so badly it's okay!! I'm strangely reminded of their first win on M!Countdown for LLO cos he's crying the same way too... like in the I-can't-breathe-anymore way.
TAEMIN'S HAIR IS DAMN THICK MAN! Lol Eunhyuk is so cute, he blows confetti @ Se Yun's face HAHA and towards the end of it the backup dancers are throwing confetti around ahahahah so cute (L)
SHINee has just recently released their new mini-album 'ROMEO' on the 25th with the new concept of 'Romeo & Juliet' in mind. The title song 'Juliette' also contains a special meaning: SHINee is Romeo and their fans are Juliet. Therefore, this new album is a gift from Romeo to his most beloved Juliet.
The album's songs are mapped out as a story that is similar to 'Romeo & Juliet'. SHINee explains, "If you look at the tracklist, you will realize that the whole album actually tells a story. Starting from the first song, the content of each song resembles 'Romeo and Juliet'.
From the boy and girl's first meeting (Talk to You), the boy confesses that he will 'give up his soul for her' (Juliette). But the couple suddenly has a fight with each other (Hit Me Baby). The girl leaves and the boy becomes depressed because of his newfound loneliness (Senorita). The boy tries his hardest to beg the girl not to leave (Please, Don't Go), but their story ends as tragically as Romeo & Juliet's (Romeo + Juliette).
After Jonghyun watched Olivia Hussey's 'Romeo & Juliet', he wrote the lyrics to the title song, "Juliette". He says, "I wanted a love story that was recognizable to everyone, and at the time, I had just finished watching 'Romeo & Juliet'. So in my lyrics, I tried to incorporate the beautiful language that was in the movie."
Ever since debut, SHINee has captured the hearts of noonas everywhere. Onew says, "On Rose Day, we went around to many places to give out roses in order to promote our new album. At the time, I was really happy that so many women screamed for us in the streets."
In just a year, SHINee has had many hit songs and won numerous awards. By dressing in really colorful clothing and singing different genres of songs, SHINee's image is deeply embedded in the audience's minds.
On their first year anniversary, Onew said, "We are not newcomers anymore. Now is the time for SHINee to create their own image and place in the industry. After debut, we have experienced many new things. Even though our voices, dances, and fashion sense has improved, we are still not satisfied."
The members currently live in an apartment with 4 bedrooms. But everyone still sleeps together in one room with bunk beds. They originally decided to sleep in the same room in order to build up their team unity, but now the members say that if they do not sleep together in the same room, then it feels really strange.
Key also insisted, "Although our personalities and habits are different, everyone is able to learn a lot from everyone else. Instead of saying that we are good friends, we should be a called a family instead. We are a family."
I fail so bad, I haven't got time to listen to their new mini-album yet, and I have a mid year paper on Monday T.T
Hope you enjoyed reading that interview, though :)
I thought it was really interesting how each song progressively tells a story of the whole Romeo & Juliette album :D and really cute when Key insisted that they were a family ha ha
I was going to post up Music Bank performances but they're not up on Youtube yet...
And while Youtube-ing I came across this video:
{Video credits to ssuhuii @ Youtube}
Not the best quality, but it's been almost a year (just one day short! ha ha) since this performance...where Key's mic pass to Taemin after Taemin's dance solo failed. Lol.
22.5.09 : [090522] Super Junior wins #1 on Music Bank!!
Posted by XYZ at 7:58 PM
Super Junior won their first #1 for "It's You" on Music Bank today!! :D And it's only their 2nd performance, and 1st one for Music Bank omgomgomg I'm so proud of them.
{Video credits to Sup3rJunior @ Youtube}
Will edit with a video of their performance later! Watch their performance video here with a HD link. :)
I'm so proud of them because "It's You" is a really beautiful song! In my opinion. I know some people don't think so (ie my friend's brother and I don't actually know him HAHA) but to me, the lyrics are really touching. Okay, maybe only because it applies to my life right now. HAHA.
I AM NEVER GOING TO GET ANY OF MY WORK DONE TONIGHT, AT THIS RATE. :S
But whatever, because there is an obvious reason to celebrate!!!!!! :D
P/S: The ring thing that Eunhyuk's wearing @ 1:42 looks like the one that Junsu from 2PM wears in their Again & Again performances!! :D I love it when different artists wear the same stuff, actually. :D
8.5.09 : Super Junior "It's You" MV teaser + [090508] #1 on Music Bank again!
